Where to save snippets

Post by jbananak »

I have about 5 projects. There are several sentences that appear many times in each of the projects.
Is it considered normal/good practice to save snippets outside of a project folder and use the same snippets for all projects? or should I just copy and paste them into each of the projects?
Thanks

Firstly, the snippets need to be inside each project.

For snippets (or any file) that are shared between projects, you can:
- keep the files in a shared project, and use a project import (also known as global project linking) to import the files. Files are copied one-way, and you can set it up to automatically re-import if they change.
- keep the files in a shared folder, and use External Resources feature to copy the files. Files can be synchronised in both directions, but you must manually start the sync after any changes.
